The Perks Of Being 50+

A friend sent me this in an email awhile back. I thought it was so funny, you'd enjoy it too.

The Perks Of Being 50+

1. Kidnappers are not very interested in you.
2. In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.
3. No one expects you to run - anywhere.
4. People call at 9 P.M. & ask "Did I wake you?"
5. People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.
6. There is nothing left to learn the hard way.
7. Things you buy now won't wear out.
8. You can eat dinner at 4 P.M.
9. You enjoy hearing about other peoples' operations.
10. You get into heated arguments about pension plans
11. You have a party & the neighbors don't even realize it.
12. You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.
13. You quit trying to hold your stomach in, no matter who walks into the room.
14. You sing along with elevator music.
15. Your eyes won't get much worse
16. Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to payoff.
17. Your joints are more accurate than the weatherman.

  1. It gets even better when you're 60 because by then everyone thinks you've really gone past it, gone deaf and are suffering from dementia or some other form of madness. They don't realise that I'm just coming into my prime!
